Yes Arkanoth approaches the farmers and asks what is going on. They tell you that there are some people in the woods seeking their lost children and that they believe that goblins are involved. "Can you believe that goblins in these parts again after so many years? We had thought they were gone for good".

Arkanoth - The villagers tell them that the group was last seeing heading into the woods towards the west. They point the way out to you but do not venture close in case any goblins happen to head their way.

Goblin1 attacks Zork but misses, Goblin 2 misses, Krusten shoots and kill goblin 3 while it was trying to get its morning star back. Zork attacks and kills goblin 2.

Arkanoth you need to roll a spot and search check to see if you find the group.

Group - When searching the goblins you come up with their studded leather armor, morning stars and 6 javelins. They have a total of 16 silver and 20 copper between them. No jewelry of other items are present. You do find two unbroken arrows and one undamaged bolt. The trail they were following continues to the south and west.

Arkanoth you find the trail of footprints left by the group and soon you are on the trail of following them.

Group - The trail is easy to follow and does not seem to have been any attempts to hide the trail. You follow the trail for about a hour when you can see a clearing ahead with what appears to be a cave. Beside the cave opening are two torches that are lit and providing some light. You can see a couple goblins walking around by the entrance.

Avan tells the Goblins to help with some heavy children and you see the two goblins look your way. The say something you can not hear down in the cave entry and you see about 10 more goblins come out and head towards where they heard you call to them. As they get closer Krusten shoots one with an arrow killing it. The others are a bit stunned and they turn running back towards the cave. They are yelling as they run shouting "Intruders quick get the pole." Victor is able to get in a blast attack but it does not stop any of the goblins. Zork runs out ready to swing but they are too far away for Melee combat. What do you do now? I need everyone to roll a spot and listen check.

Arkanoth you continue heading down the path you see a recent battle toward the left where the trail splits. Do you continue left or right?

As you run up to the cave you see the goblins disappearing down inside the cave as the light does not go very far. Avan picks up one of the torche and tosses it into the cave opening. It goes in about 30 feet and falls onto the dirt floor where is continues to burn. You can see into the cave and see that it narrows into a 10 foot opening about 35 feet in. You do not see or hear anything inside the cave. What do you do next?

Out of Character: I will be needing sopt and listen checks while in the cave for each character.

Arkanoth you head down the right path as soon you find yourself at a over look looking back over the farms. I need a spot and listen check.

As you enter the cave and head for the opening in the center at the back of the cave Krusten sees a goblin hidden off to the right pulling on a rope. As she yells to tell everyone what she sees a long branch comes down from the ceiling swinging from the opening into the cave itself on some ropes. I need everyone to roll a saving throw. VS petrify to avoid getting hit by this tree branch.

The only ones to avoid the tree branch were Krusten and the cat. Everyone else takes 3 points of damage due to the crude way it was rigged it was not able to get a good swing in. Krusten was able to shoot and kill the goblin that pulled the rope that released the tree branch.

Say what you wish to do now.

Arkanoth - you are able to follow the trail back to where it split off. Do you wish to head down the left path this time of head back towards the farms?
